More Information: The cotton bollworm, corn earworm, or Old World (African) bollworm (Helicoverpa armigera)(also known as the scarce bordered straw in the UK, where it is a migrant) is a moth, the larvae of which feed on a wide range of plants, including many important cultivated crops. It is a major pest in cotton and one of the most polyphagous and cosmopolitan pest species.
